College and Career Readiness Club heading into second year in Cass County

Last spring, Cass County launched a new club to prepare students for higher education and the 21st century workforce. The 4-H College & Career Readiness Club (C&CRC), led by club manager Larry Allen, was specifically designed for students in grades 8-12 with the goal of building a college readiness culture for the next generation of leaders. With support from Prairie View A&M Cooperative Extension 4-H & Youth Development Program, C&CRC was able to partner with Higher Education & Learning Professional Consulting, Inc. (HELP) to provide intentional college readiness support. HELP Consulting, based in College Station, is a nonprofit that specializes in helping students get to and through college and graduate school and move on to careers.
